Almost there

Remember when the kids were little and you had to travel somewhere quite far by car with them and three minutes into the trip they started up with "Are we almost there?" Well, I feel the same right now. It has been a lot of driving and my knee and one foot are killing me.

On the bright side is that George Clooney has gotten married and I am happy for him. But, I am sorry girls, he is now officially out of the loop and this piece of news I understood in German from the car radio. I also think that I understood that the Lufthansa pilots in Frankfurt are going on strike tomorrow but maybe you have better check that somewhere else. It could have been something completely different. It is fun, though to have the radio on in a different language.

This will just be a short little entry with photos of my trip from Sweden to Grenoble so far since I am supposed to have an early night and get going bright and early tomorrow to reach my destination early afternoon.

Taken on the sight seeing trip with
Mary. The bridge to Sweden seen
from a different angle. I am usually
on it so I don't have any previous
photos of it.


This building is called Turning Torso
and I saw it in Malmö when my friend
Mary took me on a sight-seeing trip
before catching the ferry the next day
over to Rostock.


Family of Guinea pigs at the hotel that I stayed in in Rostock.
The couple who run it are both keen travelers and in the hotel,
which is an up-market backpackers you can find everything
you can possibly need. Breakfast was a delight with a nice
spicy Thai soup and other delicacies.



Beautiful boardwalk in Warnemünde, twenty minutes from
Rostock. Wish I could have stayed longer.

It is bed time and I don't think I will have any problems falling asleep, counting cars. Good Night or rather Bon Nuit since I am in Switzerland now!

PS I don't want to hurt my German readers feelings but I am sorry to say that the German food still hasn't improved or is it that the food you get around the Autobahn is particularly bad. Yes, it must be that. Maybe they have not had all the cooking programs that we have in Sweden these days. That is going overboard the other way almost. Every TV channel has at least one or two cooking and baking programs in the evening. You wonder a bit about what has happened. I will probably get back on that subject again but now it is definitely goodnight.

  1. Love the photo of the Øresund Bridge. My latest photos of from the train's point of view, with a series of photos trying not get a pylon in it. Hope you arrive in Grenoble safe and sound!
